Build problems for gcc-20010305 and gcc-20010205 releases


I've made build attempts for gcc-20010305 and gcc-20010205 releases on
several UNIX flavors

	Apple Macintosh PPC G3	Rhapsody 5.6
	Compaq/DEC Alpha	OSF/1 4.0F
	IBM PowerPC		AIX 4.2
	Intel Pentium III	GNU/Linux 2.2.17-14smp (Red Hat 6.2)
	SGI Origin 200		IRIX 6.5
	Sun SPARC		GNU/Linux 2.2.17-14 (Red Hat 6.2)
	Sun SPARC		Solaris 2.7
	Power Macintosh 233MHz	GNU/Linux 2.2.15pre9

using the standard recommended procedure of building in a directory
parallel to the source directory with

	../gcc-YYYYMMDD/configure && make bootstrap install

The builds of two versions have succeeded only on these architectures:

	Intel Pentium III	GNU/Linux 2.2.17-14smp (Red Hat 6.2)
	SGI Origin 200		IRIX 6.5
	Sun SPARC		GNU/Linux 2.2.17-14 (Red Hat 6.2)

Even though the latest gcc now reports its version as 3.0 instead of
the 2.97 of last month, it is surprising to see failures on the
widely-used Compaq/DEC, IBM, and Sun platforms.

I have access to two others

	HP 9000/712		HP-UX 10.20
	Intel Pentium II	FreeBSD 4.1.1

but disk space is tight on them, and I'm reluctant to try builds there
until the success rate is higher.

I assume that the gcc development team has access to all of these
systems, and sees the same failures as I do.

If not, please let me know, and I'll provide details.  I have saved
the complete build logs.

I'll continue my build attempts as new gcc snapshots are released, but
won't report failures further unless I hear from one or more of you
that such reports are desired.
